How to Play Mini-Caps: Bombs

Become a master of deduction and disarm the grid in Mini-Caps: Bombs !

• Controls:
  • Left Click: Uncover a cell. If it's a bomb, the game ends! If it's empty, it reveals a number or expands if there are no adjacent bombs.
  • Right Click (or Long Press/Tap & Hold on touch devices): Flag a cell you suspect contains a bomb. This helps you keep track and avoid accidental clicks. Right-click again to unflag.
• Gameplay:
  • The game starts with a grid of hidden cells.
  • Click on a cell to reveal its content.
  • If you reveal an empty cell, it will show a number (1-8) indicating how many bombs are directly adjacent to it (horizontally, vertically, and diagonally).
  • If an uncovered cell has no adjacent bombs (shows '0' or is blank), it will automatically reveal all adjacent cells until numbers are encountered.
  • Use the numbers as clues to deduce the locations of bombs. For example, if a '1' is shown, and only one unrevealed cell is adjacent, that cell *must* be a bomb.
  • Flag cells you identify as bombs to mark them.
  • Your goal is to reveal all non-bomb cells.
• Objective:
  • Successfully clear the entire grid by uncovering all safe squares and correctly identifying all bomb locations.

Tips for Mastering Mini-Caps: Bombs

Sharpen your logic and clear the field with these expert tips:

• Start with Corners/Edges: Often, the safest places to click first are the corners or edges, as they have fewer adjacent cells and thus fewer potential bomb placements if a low number appears.
• Look for '1s': A '1' next to only one unrevealed square is a definite bomb. Use this to flag.
• Analyze Patterns: Learn to recognize common patterns. For example, two '1's next to each other, with one shared unknown square and one distinct unknown square for each '1', often indicates a bomb in the shared square.
• Use Flags Wisely: Don't hesitate to flag. It visually helps you avoid errors. If you're unsure, it's better to flag than to click and lose.
• Don't Guess Prematurely: If you're stuck and every click involves a 50/50 guess, revisit the entire grid. Sometimes, a distant clue can resolve an ambiguous situation.
